My buddy Mike Najera painted the prototype, I think he did an outstanding job. Mike Najera has been a free lance artist for Sideshow for a few years now, he also paints for Pop Culture and Magee Fx.

He will be one of our guests at the One Sixth Xpo. He will be doing a painting demo and will be available to answer any questions you might have about painting techniques.

You're all gonna kill me now but nevermind ..... compared to the T-800 pf this one is just a big miss. A friend of mine (who shares my interest for movies) saw the pictures and his comment straight out was: that doesn't look like Arnold - is that on purpose? After that comment I cancelled mine before the nrd kicks in. I can't be the only one. It's nowhere near to be sold out.
 
Oh lord...seriously please lets not start this again :slap

This thread is becoming a battle between it looks like Arnold and it doesn't. At this point there is a clear divide, if there isn't anything more productive to mention personally about this piece from either side lets just leaving it be. Otherwise the previous 20 pages of comments are just going to be restated all over again.

:thud:

Let's move on.......

the dumb people will never move on. they will continue to criticize it. then once it's released they will post pics of theirs and say they love it, that's usually how it works.

YES...thank you bear. It's all been said when it comes to the likeness of Arnold. Doesn't matter what side you're on, unless there is something else opinion wise to share about this piece lets just save this thread from hearing it all again.

:gah:
 
I always find it strange when people come back to the same forum to complain about a piece they don't like and basically say the same thing over and over.

I myself if I don't like a piece I say i don't like it and I move on never to see the forum again until in hand photos come in. Even then I don't say much if I don't like it still.

:cuckoo::cuckoo::cuckoo::cuckoo:
Please tell me youre being sarcastic or something!
 
Same can be said for the fans of the piece with their umpteen copycat posts praising posts about how much this piece is their personal grail. Goes both ways guys. :huh

Yea I'm not 100% sure why this thread has gotten it so bad, however for the last however many pages of comments the same thing has been pounded into the ground over and over again, does it look like arnold or not. I partially tribute that to the fact that the Terminator franchise has a ton of fans...that said if I was upset and didn't care for this statue I might mention what I would like to see on the next go around or what could potentially be changed for me to be all in on the piece but basically my involvement in the thread would be to say my two cents (or potentially leave it alone if I have nothing postitive to say) and let others with interest in the statue discuss it further. You figure at that point you don't have anything else to really contribute to the conversation and would much rather not have anything further to do with it.

Regradless of why it's happening let's keep it from getting out of control for the months remaining till this statue comes out. If you notice someone simlpy starting the cycle again, merely point out it's already been talked about and hopefully all updates to this thread will have some input worth reading about. Long live the Terminator and my anticipation for this piece is through the roof as I've watched the movie 3 times in the past two days. :yess: SO SO SO good :clap
 
cant believe the exclusive isnt sold out, people are gonna regret not getting this one. its the T2 pf all over again with all the whinning and _____ing and that came out pretty good so im sure the end product will be great.
 
Well the EX has a generous limited edition number and isn't set to be released till 4th quarter, so although I think it's a no brainer that it will sell out I think the question is more a matter of when.

Difference is I will not return to a forum about a piece I don't like and thus have no interest in buying. If someone likes it and finds it to be their personal grail then of course they are going to take the time to talk about it.

But if you don't like a piece why keep coming back? Seems like a real waste of time to me.

So perhaps it does swing both ways but one of those ways really makes no sense.
 
The exclusive is a bore. If I pre-order this, regular for sure.

its a bit of a bore since in the police shootout arnie is always wearing his glasses but for the same price, figured i'd go for the ex. i personally went with sideshow for the flex pay option, havent seen how much it costs at alterego, csc, bbts...
